I'd say go for it. I've used about 300 hundred of their disks with almost
no ill effects. The reason I mention almost, is because I got what I
thought was a bad batch of disks once from them. Several out of that batch
of 25 got read/write errors, so I assumed the whole batch bad, called MEI,
they sent me advance replacements. Nice of them. That was my only 'bad'
experience, and they took care of me right away on the phone. My friend
has used about 600 with NO bad batches. I guess that one batch of 25 is
far more the exception then the rule. I'd have to say don't pass up the
deal. (I just bought 100 at .39 apiece too!!)
